Why Chomper going bad could have dire implications

If Chomper, as he became an adult, were ever to succumb to his Sharptooth nature and turn on the Gang of Five, he'd be very dangerous, to say the least.

I'm really hoping Chomper doesn't go bad, for Littlefoot's sake.

1.)  Chomper knows the Great Valley better than any Sharptooth and would know how to avoid guards and stuff were he to ever attempt eat anyone and not get caught.

2.)  He also knows both Leaf Eater and Sharptooth, and so could lure Leaf Eaters into a trap, pretending to be one of them and getting them to come into an ambush (this ability, even the villain from the first film didn't have.  In fact, I've only seen two other Sharpteeth share it:  Dil and Ichy.  Heck, he could make an alliance with those two, having Ichy fly over the walls and showing Dil how the Belly Draggers got in last time, and so the three could go attacking the Great Valley in the middle of the night.)  

3.)  He might sell info out on the Great Valley to Red Claw (perhaps if for no other reason than that Red Claw might threaten to kill him and his parents if he doesn't), though, if he were to go bad, he might tell Sharpteeth how to get in and get around while being spotted as little as possible.  As he is trusted by the Great Valley, he could lure leaf eaters into traps himself.  If no witnesses survive, he can keep doing it over and over.  As long as the traps are OUTSIDE the Great Valley, it would be hard to pin it on him, and we know Littlefoot would keep insisting that Chomper had nothing to do with it and that the other dinosaurs are just being judgmental and he'd probably help Chomper escape if they were to try and attack Chomper anyway without any overt proof.  

4.) He knows where the nests are and could sneak eggs at night and let everyone think it was Egg Stealers.

5.)  Littlefoot trusts him completely.  He could use that to his advantage, and, given how Littlefoot ignored the tail biting thing in II and the stalking thing in V, he might be totally off his guard were Chomper to try and lure him away from the others, perhaps into a cave, and make an end of him alone.

6.)  Chomper has an intelligence level that is, without a doubt, quite higher than any other Sharptooth we've seen in any of the films, even the original villain.   Unlike Dil and Ichy, he doesn't appear that he'd be incompetent (he, after all, was able to corner the Gang of Five all by himself).   He even can talk, albeit not fully, on the day he was hatched, as he is going "Unt unnnh." and "Uh huh." in reply to stuff Littlefoot was telling him.  He also came up with the idea of how to defeat Ozzy and Strut.  If he ever were to use his brains against the Great Valley, he'd be really dangerous indeed!!!!
